Good idea taking the Scoob,,,,u will need it And yes we are all well ,,,, looking forward to
the day.Just hope i can get through the sound test....

 

Yes me to he pulled me off at the end of the day ....... and said subaru's get louder as the day goes on... .. looking forward to seeing you all there

 

First time i went my car should 113db with the bung in

 

Mine was 106... but in the morning it was 102.... . I think his meter was U/S But we will see. can't wait for you to take me out in yours Paul..... If thats ok...??

 

From my point of view, there are a lot of other marques that are just as loud.

To maximize the power from the engine, you need a good exhaust setup, or whats the point.

The power has got be released somehow.

Made me laugh that bit..... I said he should allow for that before taking peoples money...

Next year the limit is coming down again as people at Elvington are complaining still...

Makes me laugh... I live near York Racecourse and throughout the summer for 2-3 days a week our road is SHUT !! Do I get a council tax rebate... what do you you think...

You pay your money You take your chanes... I KNEW I was moving near a racecourse... Did the people at Elvington not notice the airfield

<<<Climbs down from soap box>>>

 

The people in Elvington complaining can suck me plums to be honest. Its an AIR FIELD for gods sake and track days happen there once a month, its not like its every weekend.

What would these people be like if they lived near Leeds & Bradford Airport?! They should be thankful Elvington is no longer used by the Air Force.

 

ooooh mememe!!!! i should be back from the jolly south by then so i should be able to come up and watch the fun

tell you what...i'll even bring hot soup and breakfast bread talk about bribery for a go in a sideways scoob!!

 

I wonder if they know the airfield is programmed into the space shuttles computer as an emergency landing site would love to see them over their sunday lunch if that came down and scorched the trees all around

 

Exactly, I think these people need to realise what exactly Elvington can still be used for. IIRC its also part of the early warning system too, for bombers etc to land and take off from (like a intermediate point) even though no Military is currently based there.

 

Apologies in advance for getting all ****, but the shuttle glides down from orbit. No engines, no scorching, no bloke with a noise meter 500mm from the exhaust outlet (Though the image conjoured up by that last one is amusing )

Al...

There was mention of the Club buying a noise meter at one point...

 

I'm having a look into that chuck I'll be able to get an "NHS special" had a chat with mister crafts about it last night

 

We could by a box of foam ear plugs for the locals

 

Lynds forwarded a link to Maplins for a noise meter, about £30. I'm going to maplins this week to see if I can get a power pack for the video camera. Let me know if you want me to pick one up.

 

Pick one up

 

Sorted, will do

 

Had one of those when I wanted to test the Civic . . .bought it then took it back

Tbh, unless they've changed it . . .they were'nt that accurate something like +/- 3.5db . . .which if your near the limit anyway does'nt really help.

 

Was going to Maplins in the morn to pick a meter up but it looks like B/Rich is going anyway, let me now rich if u can't get time....

 

Will do, it shouldn't be too bad, Maplins are open til 8pm most nights so I'll go ths week.

 

Nice one mate cheers ..

They were probably rushing to get their tea leaves read

Sorry to rant on, but we are helping their economy & local businesses. That is RE Motorsport & the local shop for snacks

Do they want us to roll up eco friendly . . . . . . .

I give up

 

Well my car is all green, well the stripes are ...

 

Spoke to Paul the other night and we'll be adding a noise meter to the Camera mount currently on club inventory and available to anyone who needs it...

(Rich - get a good one as we'd like accuracy and ruggedness above cheapness...er... not TOO expensive...OK? )

 

All those with green Panel Filters say I

Back On Topic
